In it, he condemned the western intelligentsia's faiblesse, which was at the same time dishonest, posturing, stupid, and evil, for Stalinist-style dictatorships.

September 26 marks the day of St. Pope Paul VI. This Pope had indelible prints in the history of the Church. His legacy will always be remembered as he has been exuding holiness, purity, and achievements serving humanity as a whole until our present time.

Pope Paul is always remembered for his great interest in ecumenism and in trying to heal the division between the Catholic Church and Orthodox Churches. In 1964, he made history during his historic trip to the Holy Land when he met with Patriarch Athenagoras I.

The miracles from heaven never came to an end over the past centuries, and to be more particular since the birth of the Prince of Peace, Lord Jesus Christ in Bethlehem.

Some people do not believe in miracles from heaven, yet they are real. People who believe in such miracles are those who trust in the Almighty Lord and give Him the reins of their lives. They consequently live in peace because they are certain that the omnipotence of Lord Jesus Christ guides their ship of life to the shores of safety.

The Church’s teaching on the end of life is re-proposed in “Samaritanus bonus” (Good Samaritan) in pastoral tones: the person is to be taken care of and surrounded with affection until the end.

At a time when the world marks on September 21 every year the International Day of Peace, which is a day the United Nations has dedicated to fortifying ideals of peace through observing 24 hours of non-violence and ceasefire, it is important to recall the statements and positions made by His Holiness Pope Francis on the need to bring about global peace.

Throughout his pontificate, Pope Francis never missed any opportunity to reflect on the values of peace as well as on the need to build a lasting peace.

he Prince of Lies cannot lie in the presence of Christ: "I know who you are — the Holy One of God!" (Luke 4:34). And Christ who is the Truth knows him, too: "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven" (Luke 10:18).

Taking a bird’s eye view on current world affairs, one can come to the conclusions that most of world disasters over the years have been man-made.

The current world affairs are not promising as well, particularly in the Middle East. With the turn of the decade, namely 2011, the Middle East countries have been living a long nightmare of bloodbaths, violence, forced displacements, bankruptcy, and days that augur a bleak future.

Amongst that white-robed army the class of 1945 wrote some bold lines. As the coronavirus put paid to many of the 75th anniversary commemorations of the end of World War II, an ancillary consequence was that some of the most inspiring Catholic martyrs of that year have not had the recognition they deserve.

The Holy See has all the time been highlighting issues relevant to ensuring measures that guarantee a dignified and safe life for humans by forestalling any factors that threaten or degrade human life.

On the other hand, Pope Francis has repeatedly urged prayer and commitment to free the world from nuclear weapons. During a visit on November 24, 2019 to the two Japanese cities razed by atomic bombs during World War II, namely Nagasaki and Hiroshima, Pope Francis called for a “world without nuclear weapons.”

September 21 marks the Feast of St. Matthew.

Before reflecting on St. Matthew, it is important to note that the turning point in his life was the divine statement made by Lord Jesus to St. Matthew telling him, "Follow me”.

He immediately became a disciple of Lord Jesus. Being a disciple of Jesus represents a nonpareil honor or rather the utmost hope of every sinner.
